If you are flying to Nairobi and already registered, I highly recommend you bring your user group, affiliate or local community sharable items like brochures, bookmarks, stickers, brochures etc. to promote your advocacies / campaigns, or perhaps you can just share sweets (please label them if it has allergens), magnets, coins and other small stuff.
If you are on social media, you can follow Wikimania at handle @wikimania.conference (Facebook & Instagram), @wikimania (YouTube & X) for other updates. You can also chat on Telegram (https://t.me/wikimaniachat).

Dear Wikimedians,
We’re happy to announce that the full program for Wikimania 2025 https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2025:Program?fbclid=IwY2xjawLkzE9leHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHt_Xlc1Hd7TGnSxC8jxK6IFVygb4B3Mmg8AWDet29A6LRqYEba-j4UXxkSms_aem_L1vsEhsWHIr4_qUAUinfLQis now live! This year, we received a record number of submissions and want to thank everyone who took the time to send one in – you helped shape the programme.
Our theme for this year is: “Wikimania@20: Inclusivity. Impact. Sustainability.” Presenters will reflect on milestones and share initiatives that move us towards a future that supports ongoing, sustainable, open collaboration. The conference schedule contains over 100 hours of programming which will be available online and in-person; spearheaded by more than 400 presenters, with live interpretation into 5 languages.
In addition to the program, we have also published a Meetups page where you can sign up for an in-person slot, as well as a page with the pre-conference events happening on 5 August https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2025:Pre-Conference, and a page where we are adding tours and side events https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2025:Tours_and_Side_Eventson a rolling basis.
Take a moment to explore the program, get inspired, and start building your own schedule by logging in to your eventyay account on the top right of the screen and marking the sessions you don’t want to miss as favorites. If you haven’t already, you can still register for the online experience here https://wikimedia.eventyay.com/tickets/wikimedia/wikimania2025/.
We look forward to connecting with you, in Nairobi or remotely, from 5th-9th August 2025.
Kind regards,
Alice Kibombo

My Fellow Wikimedians,
Mark your preferred Wikimania sessions (⭐/ like) on eventyay while this volunteer created tool is very useful for getting your starred sessions into your calendar: https://wfc.toolforge.org/
If you are from an affiliate, chapter, hub, user group, or local community, we love to see your brochures, handouts or pocket books. For others, aside from those, you can bring in small items in our conference in Nairobi. Further details are at the Wikimania Exchange Corner : https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania:2025/Exchange_Corner
Meetups are seen at https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania:2025/Meetups
If you have any questions, feel free to ask at wikimania@wikimedia.org
Sincerely,
Butch Bustria
